In This Together With Dr. Josh + Christi

Sam Jolman says, “Talking to your children about sex should be likened to having 100 one-minute conversations.” As we continue season 5 on relational intelligence, therapist and author Sam Jolman joins us once again, this time to talk about how to help our kids script a narrative of romance. In this episode, Sam shares profound insights on age-specific ways to talk to your kids about their body, why it’s important to follow their questions, and how to cultivate a value-based, not a fear-based conversation. In the end, the goal is to help our kids experience awe, not live in shame. Time Stamps:0:00 Introduction2:19 Sam Jolman joins the show!3:10 Talking to kids ages 0 to 66:40 A profound insight on shame and glory12:09 Talking to kids ages 7 to 1220:50 Moving from fear-based to values-base conversation with your kids24:40 Talking to teens30:10 The difference between arousal and lust 33:20 Preparing our kids for marriage40:02 Innocence, not naivetyShow Notes: Get Sam Jolman’s book The Sex Talk You Never Got. ht
